Convincing update of an outdated novel
Lorna Doone was the Victorians all time favourite novel, and it does contain everything a sentimental reader could ask for: love and treachery, revenge and sudden twists, all set against a colourful local and historical background… Today we can’t help noticing that the plot contains more holes than a farmer’s sieve, but this production covers them up by its drive and opulence, supported by convincing casting and some very good acting. The only discrepancy is Lorna’s Estuary English, but as she’s so pretty and acts well
Certainly Lorna Doone is worth seeing
Lorna Doone is a BBC film of the novel by Richard Blackmore. It shows the beautiful relations between two young lovers in the middle of a feud. It takes place in the 1600s when there was much fighting between the catholics and protestants in England. The Doones were murderers and thieves and attacked and killed John’s father. He decides to get revenge. John meets a girl that he saw in his childhood. She is a Doone hiding from a man named Carver who wants to make her his wife. He was the man that killed John’s father. Despite the dirty tricks of the Doones and the temporary bewilderment of the divided royal authorities, the two sweethearts live happily together in the end.
